    Default Rollininstyle2004's New Daily Project BOB (Balla on a Budget) 56k HAHA

    My buddy Jordan aka Rollininstyle2004 got a new daily recently. It isn’t anything special just a 2001 Honda Accord LX with 30k on the odometer! We got a little crazy with it as you will see in this thread. The exterior is not meant to be taken seriously at all. We did use this car as a test and tune for us on our suede and mdf skills. So, come along as we try to make Jordan’s Accord unique on a BOB (Balla on a Budget) budget.



    We started with the maintenance items.



    Seafoamed the car







    Oil changed











    Spark plugs







    Jordan wanted to paint his steelies. We did this project for under $20







    Sanding down







    Washed off







    Primer











    Krylon Anodized Blue Metal Paint lol















    Done







    lol we even painted the exhaust manifold heat shield











    Time to hit up the audio portion of our build



    Mocked up







    Cleaned out the trunk











    Measure







    Cut



















    Floor panel done















    Shimmed to level the box



















    Removed the subs to build the wall











































    Mocked up the amps























    Covering the wall panels



































    Done







    Installing the amp kit























    Installing the dash kit















    Wired up the harness and the speaker wires for the coaxels



















    Done







    More wires

    Started the door speakers







    Customizing the rings for the wires to go through















    Done







    Jordan started on the suede portion of his build



















    We started to install the headliner



























    Door panels reinstalled







    A pillars done







    B pillars done







    Time to do some custom mounts for the rear speakers to convert 6”x9” holes for 6” coaxels



























    Test fitted the suede wrapped deck lid















    Time to start sound deadening



























    Rear deck done!















    Deadening the trunk lid and under the license plate and tail lights











































    Stupid aluminum cut me!










    Drilling in some self tapping screws for the lower holes of the plate







    My poor phone was covered in MDF by the time we were done!











    Ready to roll!

    Jordan is a new member of the International AllStars but due to an unfortunate happening he lost his show car. So, for now he is using his daily to help promote and support the team. So, the sticker stays

    But if you are talking about that little sticker on the rear windshield please help because it has been on the car for who knows how long and has become brittle. I am scared to take it off. I am afraid I'll ruin the defrosting lines.

    Go to auto zone and get enough adhesive remover to soak a rag really well and hold it to the sticker until it softens. Then use a plastic razor blade and it should scrap off like jelly.

    I just got the suede from Joann's. I bought 6 yards and it was just enough to do all 4 door panels, all the pillars, the rear deck, armrest, and the headliner with a little to spare for mess ups.

    The rear seat is going back in, the sound deadening isnt finished yet, so that is why its still out.

    Crimp caps are the best thing. Must faster/easier than soldering, but just as effective.
